Default Gas engine problem

I have a Sachs 3.2 that I bought and used about 30 years ago, a great engine. I put it to use this past year but found needed carb rebuild, which I did. Now ready to go but found I have no spark. It uses a CD electronic ignition system but not getting any spark now. Any ideas or anyone have one to sell. This is an old system made by CH Electronics Inc.

Default RE: Gas engine problem

You might call up CH and see if they have any troubleshooting tips. Also if it is that old make sure all the electrical connections are clean. I had one with a poor connection from the magnetic trigger to the ignition box. a little electrical cleaner and plugging/unplugging a few times did the trick.
